Gwen & Gavin Welcome A Baby Boy!

                                

That’s right you’ve read correct! It looks like another boy was welcomed into the rockstar family. Gwen Steffani gave birth to her second son named Zuma Nesta Rock, an 8.5 lb. baby boy at 12:46 P.M. on Thursday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center according to Ok! Magazine. The singer’s rep confirms that the mother, baby, and family are all doing well. Gwen and her husband Gavin Rossdale are already parents to Kingston 2, and Zuma will be the couples second child but a third for Gavin, as he has a 19-year-old daughter named Daisy from a previous relationship.

I was hoping that Gwen would pop out a girl this time around only because I knew she would be an adorable fashionista like her mother.  Too bad! Anyway congrats to the couple!

Luxerepublic had the opportunity to visit the set of Brandy’s new video for her new single ‘Right Here (Departed’. This is her first single from her first album since 2004’s ‘Afrodisiac’.

The video was shot in Downtown LA and features Brandy giving performance shots among the urban setting with the buildings, traffic and crowds of walking pedestrians in the backdrop.
